  • America’s Most Wanted war eine US-amerikanische Dokumentarfernsehsendung, die zunächst von 1988 bis 2011 auf Fox ausgestrahlt wurde, danach aber noch für zwei weitere Jahre beim Kabelsender Lifetime gezeigt wurde. Die Sendung diente der Aufklärung von Straftaten und dem Aufspüren von Tatverdächtigen. Thematische Vorgänger der Sendung waren die deutschsprachige Sendung Aktenzeichen XY … ungelöst und das britische . In jeder Episode wurden Beiträge ausgestrahlt, in denen Schauspieler echte Verbrechen nachspielten. Danach wurden die Zuschauer aufgerufen, sich als Zeugen zu melden. Laut eigenen Aussagen konnten so bis 12. September 2009 1089 Verbrecher gefasst werden. Im September 1996 wurde die Show abgesetzt, ein Entscheid, der nach massiven Protesten und nachdem die Ersatzsendung hinter den Erwartungen zurückgeblieben war, rückgängig gemacht wurde. Moderator der Sendung war John Walsh, dessen Sohn 1981 ermordet wurde. Walsh ist auch einer der Eigentümer des National Museum of Crime & Punishment in Washington, D.C., wo sich auch das TV-Studio der Sendung befand. (de)

A short-lived syndicated spinoff titled America's Most Wanted: Final Justice aired during the 1995–96 season. The September following the initial 2011 cancellation, the show's host, John Walsh, announced that it would resume later that year on the cable network Lifetime, where it ran until its March 28, 2013 cancellation. This was reportedly due to low ratings and the level of royalty payments to Fox which holds the trademark and copyright. It was succeeded by John Walsh Investigates, a one-off special on Lifetime. The show featured reenactments of dangerous fugitives that are portrayed by actors, interspersed with on-camera interviews, with Walsh in a voiceover narration. Each episode also featured photographs of dangerous fugitives, as well as a toll-free hotline number where viewers could (and were allowed to remain anonymous) give information at 1-800-CRIME-TV (1-800-274-6388). On 2 May 2008, the program's website announced its 1,000th capture. Many of the series' cases have some connection outside the United States or have not taken place in the United States at all. The series' first international capture was in Nova Scotia in 1989. With Walsh at the helm, America's Most Wanted began to broaden its scope. In addition to the regular segments narrated by Walsh, the show expanded its segments and correspondents. The first two-hour quarterly special aired on Saturday, October 29, 2011, on Fox. The second two-hour special aired on Saturday, December 17, 2011, the third two-hour special aired on Saturday, February 11, 2012, and the fourth and final two-hour special aired on Saturday, April 21, 2012. On July 13, 2014, a successor premiered on CNN called The Hunt with John Walsh, which added more international stories to its predecessor. The series ran until the end of its fourth season on November 19, 2017. In 2019, Walsh began hosting the Investigation Discovery series In Pursuit with John Walsh. In January 2020, Fox announced plans to revive America's Most Wanted. The revival aired from March 15 to April 12, 2021, and was hosted by Elizabeth Vargas. (en)
